Kepler-1293 and Its Sub-Earth Planet
Kepler-1293 is a star 3350 light-years away with one planet. The star is 2.82 billion years old, has a mass of 1.18 solar masses, a radius of 1.28 solar radii, and a temperature of 6240 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet, Kepler-1293 b, is a Sub-Earth, meaning its radius is smaller than Earth's. It was discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish orbital periods. Kepler-1293 b has a radius of 0.97 Earth radii, and its orbital period is 5.58 days.
